*********

Khushi is invited to a party thrown by a common friend of Vikranth. She gets to see him there and tries to ignore him in every possible way. She surely doesn't want to upset her family anymore.

Vikranth anyway walks upto her..
"Hey..!"

"Hey..!".. she replies..

"What's up?! Ignore kyun kar rahi hai?!"

"Vikranth we shouldn't talk!"

"Lekin kyun?!"

"Because I don't want to.. can't get into a mess again, can't hurt my family! Moreover it was you who said 'clear your shits first'.. remember?"

"Babyyy..listen to me.. just listen to me for once.!!".. he holds her from either side of her arms..

"Main aur kya karta?! Sid bhai was going overboard! I lost my mind! Yaar I wasn't even invited to their marriage! Shehbaaz se pata chala..!"

"There was no ceremony! It was just family..anyway that's not important. If I knew that you will be here as well, main nehi aati for sure!"

"Okay chill kar! Let's not talk about all these.. Let's just enjoy the party for now!"

"Hmm.. that's better!"...she walks away..

Shehnaaz comes back and steps inside the room and gets confused to see him sleeping at this hour..

"Sidharth..?"

"Hmm..?"

"Is wakt kyun so rahe ho aap? Tabiyat theek hai na aap ka?"...she sits next to him and caresses his hair..

"Hmm..I am okay..fresh ho ja..and get me some tea.."

"Haan..abhi lati hoon..baad mein fresh ho jaungi.."
